Another World Gallery Became Popular

18 – The Sudden Rush into Another World Gallery

The land of the Dark Elves, Ardel, was located underground.

They were, after all, part of the World Tree, each with roles to perform.

If the Elves looked after the trunk and branches, the Dark Elves were tasked with managing the roots.

Naturally, they grew accustomed to the darkness, their actions ceaseless within the dim environment, much like a writer preferring the stimulation of the night instead of the day. They were much the same.

Stimulation is wild, stimulation is fun!

Due to such beliefs, the Dark Elves found it hard to resist over-indulging in the gallery.

Title) How was it?

(A pretty , big chest reflected in the shadow.jpg)

ㅡOh, wowㅡ

ㅡNow that’s modern artㅡ

ㅡShadow art is top-notchㅡ

ㅡLook at the shapeㅡ

ㅡAbsolutely eye-candyㅡ

Title) How was it?

(A man’s.jpg)

ㅡDisgustingㅡ

ㅡWhat the hell?-

ㅡWhy do we have to see a man’s in the gallery?

ㅡOi, where do you live?

Ardel

They’re spirited, huh?

These Ardel bastards become horny every dawn.

No kidding.

Although they are Dark Elves who live in the shadows and avoid other’s gaze, they were lively in the gallery.

They loved to be stimulated and carried all their bad habits; the gallery was their playground.

“By nature… Elves… must maintain their dignity… and pay much more attention to their behavior…!”

Their participation was different from the elf spies who pretended not to be in the gallery while sneaking peeks.

Dark Elves had a higher percentage of the gallery than anticipated.

The queen of the evolved Dark Elves, Serendia, also frequently checked the gallery.

However, she was now staring with narrowed eyes.

“Ju-Jik… a dangerous entity.”

Serendia focused on his abilities.

Tracking the location of auction house and gallery users. From Ardel’s perspective, it was a meticulous ability.

To specify a specific person’s location?

If you randomly choose any users, wouldn’t you find out that the subject is affiliated with Ardel?

If you gather information like this… Someday, small dots will gather and complete a map.

The threat of revealing Ardel’s hidden underground cities and bases shouldn’t be taken lightly.

“Ju-jik is a threat to Ardel.”

To the Dark Elves who hide their homes and protect their bodies extremely, Ju-jik was a ticking time bomb.

They might end up repeating their painful history.

Immediately, Serendia summoned the personnel from the diplomatic department.

Only three people gathered.

“Is this all?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Actually, we’re not doing diplomacy.”

A closed species, Dark Elves, active in the night and darkness from their underground cities.

It was not their specialty to interact or resolve issues through conversation with others.

To persuade with words? It’s not easy.

Negotiating with a dagger to their throats was more familiar to them.

“Ah, that’s true.”

“When the routine becomes proactive measures followed by reporting while always dealing with diplomacy…”

The Department of Foreign Affairs, which was steadily shrinking, was unable to fulfill its responsibility.

“So it has.”

“Yes.”

The Dark Elves manage the roots of the World Tree.

It was a problem to manage the extensive roots of the world that spread across the continents by violating the territory of other countries.

If they wanted to carry out military operations, they had to exchange letters each time.

Having a dialogue while being courteous? That wasn’t easy either.

Eventually, they stopped dealing with diplomacy.

Why bother when you can move quietly and solve it with power?

But wielding a sword, or power, in the gallery was the authority and role of a commander.

All that Serendia, who was just a gallery user, could do was to speak.

“Minister of Foreign Affairs.”

“Yes.”

“What’s your take on Judak?”

“He’s interesting.”

“Not that.”

“Hmm?”

“How do you see it from Ardel’s point of view?”

He pondered for a moment.

“Hmm. If we use the location-tracking function… it won’t pose a threat to us at Ardel….”

“As expected. You’re clever, Minister of Foreign Affairs. So what should we do?”

“Hmm.”

He pondered again.

“Should we plant fear?”

“Fear, you say.”

“We’re good at that, aren’t we?”

Fear….

It seems like a good approach.

Serendia immediately posted the message in the gallery.

─Serendia

Title) Warning to Jujjak.

If you do not want to go down, do not mess with Ardel.

ㄴJujjak) ?

Suddenly, Ardel-style diplomacy started.

***

The line where things can be resolved by force is on a personal basis.

If groups struggle against each other? They’ve already surpassed the point where strength can solve things.

They must find resolution through dialogue and politics. Otherwise, it’s war.

But Ardel’s exceptional diplomatic skills exceeded such solutions.

They’ve gone so far – they’ve started with a threat.

─Serendia

Title) This is Ardel’s standpoint.

Jujjak should cease hostile actions against our dark elves.

Disgusting as elves’ minions.

If you stop now, Jujjak, I will forgive you.

ㄴ??

ㄴ?

ㄴ?

ㄴ¿

ㄴHe’s crazy?

ㄴYa, looking at the certified, he’s really from the dark elves?

ㄴIt’s the representative of the dark elves speaking, lol

ㄴThe real queen of Serendia lol.

ㄴBut who hit the dark elves?

ㄴWhat did Jujjak do?

ㄴDid he hit the dark elves?

ㄴWhat kind of hostile act is it?

“I didn’t do it;;;

hahahaha

Seems like it just exploded on its own hahahaha

For real though, even sudden combustion is still an explosion hahahaha

Seriously, how are you supposed to avoid it when fire sparks from natural combustion? hahahaha

Even though I don’t know about the hostility of the dark elves, it’s not right for the elf lackeys, right?

Lame elf’s lackey hahahaha

That elf is holding a staff hahahaha

If a lackey is holding it instead, isn’t that volunteering?

Give them a break with that hahahaha

Volunteer gallery hahahaha

Title) I’m not sure but

This is something the lame elf should apologize for.

Right…

That’s right, if only the lame elf hadn’t ordered the lackey around…

Ended up exposing the elf cartel and screwed over big time, right?

Dark elves freak out when elf stories come up hahahaha

Definitely a trigger button hahahaha

Lame elf cartel hahahaha

Is it a senior center? hahahaha

The representative of the elves, the lame one, should apologize.

When did you become a representative?

If someone’s face is seen often and they’re boss, they’re the representative hahahaha

hahahaha, for real, there has to be a reason

Ahh, they should have managed it well

Seriously, blaming something from way back

Elf lame, explain quickly

Explain

Explain”

I type kinda slow

Lol

So you’re going to have to wait lol

This is the fastest I can type lmao

-FlowerDruid

Title) Explanation…?

I’m not sure,,, what you want me to explain,,,

I didn’t do anything,,,!!!!

I’ve never bothered a Dark Elf,,,!!

-Typically, the ones who bother others say things like this

FlowerDruid) Eek…!!!!!

-Grandma is enraged lol

-Lol

-Another day of the old elf that posts plant photos crying from injustice lol

-Seriously what would he have done lol

-Did they get chewed out for not taking care of the root of the tree of the world?

-Freaking lol. Are they gangsters lol

-Did they line up the Dark Elves and chew them out lol

-I guess they lost their temper lol

The Golems laughed and overlooked the flower druid’s reaction.

Even if they look hard, the character that buys something for others is not it.

The Golems rolled a bait with the content written in the Dark Elf’s post.

Title) So why is Serendia mad?

Hmm?

-What the heck did the patsy do?

Patsy) I didn’t do anything, seriously;;;

-And why

-Right

-Why are they flipping out.

-Hmm…

Hmm…

Hmmm…

Huh?

Oh, I get it. They’re afraid of their gallery location being tracked, so they’re trying to warn each other?

Why?

Are they hiding?

Yeah.

Who the hell checks locations manually with that?

Maybe they’re scared of the danger if their location gets leaked, lol.

Why?

They’re obsessed with their safety.

?

Why are they like that?

Those who don’t know the history of the Dark Elves wouldn’t know.

A race oppressed by the Elves?

That’s why they left Ardel.

There’s a deep bond between Dark Elves.

Elves?

Elves kicked the Dark Elves out of Elan, lol.

Ah.

The Elves again, lol.

Elves really crossing the line, lol.

Most of the continent’s problems can be roughly solved by dealing with the Elves, lol.

They do have it rough, lol.

They really founded Ardel after being chased out by the Elves.

They don’t want this house taken away.

They desperately want to protect their house.

I had no idea.

Title: The Tragic Plight of the Dark Elves

Because of their past of being betrayed by their own kind, they naturally distrust other races. Lol.

Really? That’s obvious lol. I can’t trust it.

ㅡ It can’t be helped…

ㅡ No matter what, it seems like we’ll get stabbed in the back ㅡㅡ

ㅡ That’s the reason for the hostility toward other races.

ㅡ They complain even when you’re nice to them.

ㅡ?? : Why are they being nice to me…?

ㅡ?? : f*ck, this clearly seems filled with ulterior motives… There’s no way this could happen…

ㅡ I have an interest in your kind. Would you like a drink…?

ㅡ?? : There’s no way…

ㅡ But isn’t this just a typical loser?

ㅡ Damn lol

ㅡ A loser who couldn’t be loved by others lol

ㅡ Don’t talk about me…

ㅡ f*ck, suddenly hit a nerve here

ㅡ seriously lol

ㅡ They don’t trust other races

ㅡ Even I wouldn’t if I were them. Damn lol

ㅡ Got abandoned by their own kind, who would they trust? Son of a b*tch lol

ㅡ Honestly, except for allies, everyone is considered enemies lol. The elf who believed in neutrality was betrayed lol.

─D ark elf is the best

Title) The Problem is Dark Elfs

Slyly active only at night and always dwelling within the earth

Consider from an elf’s standpoint for real

ㅡ Wow, look at their character lmao

ㅡ You elf…

ㅡ Look at this guy’s ID lmao

ㅡ Elf spy is gay…

ㅡ No, this is too much lol

ㅡ Truly, our country has gone crazy

ㅡ Elf please lol

“But how can they assassinate him if no one knows where he is?”

“Well, they might have exceptional assassination skills. They might be able to find him first.”

“Seriously?”

“I hear they use dark magic to find targets.”

“There’s little information about dark magic. Few people even know of its existence.”

“Elves use magic, but Dark Elves specifically use dark magic.”

“Due to the lack of widespread knowledge about dark magic on the continent, nobody knows what they’re capable of.”

“But,”

“Some reckon they might actually find him. This opinion was more popular than expected.”

“Dark magic, huh….”

“It’s kind of scary.”

He was trembling in fear.

The thought of them tracking him down was terrifying indeed.

Wait… turning a crisis into an opportunity…?

What if he welcomed the beautiful Dark Elf as his wife?

That wouldn’t happen. Shaking off the irrelevant thoughts, he quickly crafted a post.

─By

Title) I think there’s been a misunderstanding

I didn’t antagonize the Dark

─Serendia

Title) Lack of Sincerity.

Prove it

ㄴJudduck) What exactly do you want me to prove?

ㄴSerendia) Do we need to also specify that for you?

ㄴlol, such a crazy thought

ㄴFigure it out yourselves lol, but be ready for a fit if it’s unsatisfactory lol

ㄴBut lol, are you saying I lack sincerity? lol

ㄴWhat is sincerity lol?

ㄴJudduck) If I fail

ㄴSerendia) You will pay with your life. There’s no need to spare Ardel’s threat.

ㄴHere I come to claim the life~~

ㄴSuddenly claiming a life lol

ㄴDid you borrow a life? lol

ㄴHurry up and give back the life lolol

ㄴlolol

ㄴWho the hell borrows a life? lol

ㄴDoes Judduck have two lives?

ㄴJust give one then

ㄴYou’ll still have one left so, not bad eh

ㄴCrazy people lol

ㄴIf you only have one life can you borrow and then pay back?

ㄴ?

ㄴWhat kind of nonsense is this lol

ㄴHow the hell do you borrow a life? You damn fool lol

ㄴLet’s negotiate ;; for zero lives;;

ㄴHow to negotiate?

ㄴIf it’s a sincere negotiation, it’s possible

ㄴlolol, there’s no way around a sincere negotiation lol

ㄴWill that work lol?

The Dark Elves have only a handful of negotiations in their history, lol.

Seriously, they’d never concede.

– Dutch: Why on earth are you behaving this way?

Just look at their desperation, lol.

Really lol. Dutch is being threatened with murder without doing anything.

Perhaps to eliminate the potential threat of Aardel in advance, lol.

They’re just suffering from an inability to trust others, lol. What can we do, lol?

This is just their daily life.

Look at the surrounding nations, like Aardel doesn’t exist, they don’t mess with it, lol.

Really lololol.

Now that’s why they aren’t interfering, lololol.

Why on earth is Serendia behaving like that?

Contemplating destroying everything, bombarding the gallery. An alarm rings in the midst of my thoughts.

[Your Gallery Management Level has increased!]

[You can select a management privilege.]

[Gallery Photo Pre-check]

[Gallery Auction House Manager +1]

[Enhanced Gallery Search Feature]

[Decorate Gallery Banner Picture]

[Gallery…]

The gallery is on Dutch’s side, alright.

Let’s see if there’s anything useful here.

Search for a good choice.

Something to do with a Dark Elf… This might be a good choice?

Dutch selected one perk.

***

The Queen of Aardel, Serendia, wrote a post on the gallery, with a proud smile on her face.

“With this, they must have known the fear of our Aardel.”

“Yes, they surely have.”

Her smile deepened as her deputy complimented her.

Juduk. If he had been warned to this extent, he wouldn’t cause any more trouble now. He was certain.

‘There will be no messing with Ardel.’

Even if he traced the members of the auction site and found out their location, he would not dare to leak it.

That was enough.

The information about Ardel, which is made up of a small underground city, leaked to someone — that’s the worst.

Where the base and the underground city are located. Other races should not know.

Because Ardel … now no one could be trusted.

‘While I’m here, Ardel shouldn’t experience such hardships.’

Ardel being damaged or its power getting reduced by someone?

It’s a situation he couldn’t bear to witness with his own eyes.

Serendia, while working in the gallery, hated to imagine the Dark Elves trembling in fear.

‘But if he ever goes against his word and leaks….’

She resolved to instantly take Juduk’s life.

No matter how well hidden, darkness and shadows exist everywhere.

Using dark magic to locate the other person. Although slow, it was surely possible.

Even if it was Juduk who was hiding.

From now on, there should be no situations that put Ardel in danger.

That’s what Serendia believed, but then, a new post was put up in the gallery.

─Gallery Announcement

A new notice in the gallery?

Serendia clicked on the post, furrowing her brows.

─Juduk

Title) Gallery Announcement

In respect of Ardel’s intentions,

The connection of the Ardel members will be blocked so that Juduk myself cannot track the Ardel members.

Regarding your behavior, it has been objected by Serendia,

Always be thankful to her.

ㄴWhat’s there to be thankful for, f*ck

ㄴWhat, is it a region lock?

ㄴWhy only Ardel?

“What the hell!!!!

If I can’t make it to the gallery, I’ll die!!!

Please open the door, please open the door, please open the door, please open the door

It’s not because of what the queen of Serendia said, is it?

King Lee is a god among gods ㅋㅋ

Rather than letting someone rage in the gallery, I guess they will make them unable to do at all ㅇㅇ

Blocking Ardell, the cause itself, to remove the danger for Serendia ㅋㅋㅋ

What’s the vibe in Ardell like ㅋㅋㅋ

Ardell’s public sentiment seems to be messed up

I guess it’s really manly to openly go after Ardell ㅋㅋ

Because Serendia is a woman, wouldn’t she be considered a strong woman?

Why not goddess?

She’s a fairy…

Dark elves and stooges are fighting

Fighting is on ㅋㅋㅋ

Doesn’t even the stooges lose a fight?

Look at this guy begging for a ban ㅋㅋ He must have lost the fight ㅋㅋ

Haven’t seen a regional lock in a while ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

When was it?

I can’t quite remember, it was a few years ago…

Was it a divine punishment? There was once a time like that

Regional lock?

“Ha. That was it.”

Serendia blatantly ignored it.

Ardell does not falter from such incidents.

Rather, it’s not bad to prevent the threats from Ardell at the root.

She believed so.

The next day, a riot broke out in Ardell.
